Things you should know
This Boucheron Paris watch showcases exceptional beauty and distinctive originality, with its sturdy case reflecting the grace of regular use. The light scratches present are typical for a watch of its age and serve as subtle reminders of its history. The crystal also bears some superficial marks, yet they do not interfere with the readability of the dial or obscure the elegant design beneath.
The crown, while possibly a later replacement, still complements the watch's aesthetic and functions perfectly. The case, though polished , retains much of its original charm, with signs of polishing visible upon inspection. The caseback displays a few deeper scratches, though they remain superficial and do not detract from the overall legibility or beauty of the "Boucheron" and "Paris" inscriptions. The gold hallmarks remain crisp and well-preserved, highlighting the watch’s authenticity. The matching stamped number "27" on both the interior of the case and the upper case underscores the watch’s originality and careful craftsmanship.
The dial, in a striking dark brown or black hue, stands as the centerpiece of this timepiece and has been remarkably well-preserved over time. The yellow gold "Bat" shaped hands, unique to Boucheron, show light signs of oxidation, a subtle indication of the watch's vintage nature and authenticity.
Although the strap is not original and in decent condition, it is recommended for replacement if intended for daily use. However, the original 18kt yellow gold Boucheron buckle, an exceptionally rare find, is present and retains its full authenticity with the correct engraving.
Finally, the movement bears the Boucheron signature, confirming the watch's heritage and quality, further enhancing its appeal as a collector’s piece.
